Thats amazing. To be honest with you I watched my young aunt be tortured by cancer for almost a year straight before she passed away. It was the sadest thing that I ever said. She was the most religious person I have ever met. She would do anything for anyone. She was the most caring person I have ever met.. When our prayers weren't answered for her and her life wasn't spared, I went through a time where I almost completly stopped believing.. Gradually over time I started to believe again. This has just proven that when it's your time to go home to the Lord, It's just your time.. It is truelly up to him when we go home and when we stay here on earth.

I use to work in personal care, and i have seen a lot of people die, some are peaceful, and some are just down right terrible, it does rock your faith some days, you just have to trust in a higher power. No one knows how long they will be here or when that day will come, i try to live everyday to the fullest, and when i wake up in the mornings, and see my sons beautiful face i thank God for another day with him.

What a wonderful miracle to have happen and to know that God truly does answer prayers. What a blessing for your family.

Our own Debbie here at 4WT is battling cancer. We have a site where we keep a candle lit for her and I know I would appreciate everyone lighting a candle for her and asking God to heal her too. We have been a small group for quite some time here at 4WT and have gotten as close as some families. I believe if we can still stay close and hold each other in prayer...that miracles will happen and prayers will be answered.
